Bright red fruit and good acidity. Has great QPR at its price point. Very good food wine because of the acidity.

Spicy and fruity. Still has some time to age. Great for drinking with The Godfather movies

Red berry fruit flavors. Earthy notes on the nose. A bit muted and "hot" but it is the current vintage. Good QPR at this price point.

One of the worst I had so far. Taste weird. Muddy, mineral, wet and taste like crushed berries that had been kept in warm place for days. Sorry guys but I am lucky I did not buy it.
